(S)-2-Bromobutane has a specific rotation of +23.1°. Suppose that a solution is made by dissolving 20.00 g of (S)-2-bromobutane in 1.00 L total solution. What would be the measured rotation of plane-polarized light sent througha 10.00-cm tube containing that solution?
The quantitative differences in biological activity between the two enantiomers of a compound are sometimes quite large. For example, the D isomer of the drug isoproterenol, used to treat mild asthma, is 50 to 80times more effective as a bronchodilator than the L isomer. Identify the chiral center in isoproterenol. Why do the two enantiomers have such radically different bioactivity?
